Could coming to reason give the same sense of satisfaction?
“You— What exactly do you want to do?” Ding Jiaqi gulped down her saliva and asked tentatively.
“Ding Jiaqi, I don’t like to beat around the bush, and I don’t like to reason with others.” Mo Fei drew a small mark on her neck. “I warned you, but you didn’t take it seriously.”
Ding Jiaqi’s neck was in pain. A layer of her skin had been cut, but there was no blood. It was similar to how when we received a papercut—it was very painful, but the wound was undetectable.
“Cousin Fei, I really didn’t do it on purpose today. I was just too worried about Second Uncle. I—”
Before Ding Jiaqi could finish her sentence, Mo Fei had already broken through the skin on Ding Jiaqi’s neck. “I hate it when people lie.”
“Feifei—” Qian Yikun’s voice came from downstairs.
Mo Fei suddenly put away the dagger in her hand and pushed Ding Jiaqi aside, pretending as if nothing had happened.
Qian Yikun exchanged a few words with the servants below before ascending the stairs, only to see this precious woman starting to walk her old path again. Right now, she was threatening someone with a dagger.
When Ding Jiaqi saw Qian Yikun, her expression changed involuntarily. Mo Fei turned around and gave her a threatening look.
Ding Jiaqi immediately shut her mouth. However, her body still moved involuntarily to let Qian Yikun to see the wound on her neck.
Qian Yikun swept his gaze over and went over to hold Mo Fei’s hand. “I need to talk to you.” As he spoke, he pulled Mo Fei back into her room. It was as if he did not see Ding Jiaqi at all, let alone the wound on her neck.
After getting dragged into the room by Qian Yikun and slamming the door shut, Mo Fei and Qian Yikun left Ding Jiaqi stomping her feet in anger.
After Qian Yikun closed the door, he flung his hand out and fished out the dagger from Mo Fei’s back.
Mo Fei, “…”
Well, was this not awkward?
It was all that woman’s fault!
“Mo Fei—”
“Well, you said that I can’t make a move in public. There was no one there earlier.” Mo Fei quickly explained herself. “Furthermore, I haven’t even asked my question yet. Why are you here? Don’t you have a case to handle?”
Mo Fei said that without bothering to hide her disdain.
Qian Yikun glared at Mo Fei and finally threw the dagger aside.
“What happened?” Qian Yikun loosened the tie on his police uniform, obviously feeling the discomfort from wearing a tie.
Mo Fei poured everything that happened today out to Qian Yikun.
Qian Yikun sat by the bed and looked at the woman who was still agitated from telling her story. It seemed that many things had happened during his absence today.
“Oh, right, I saw Zhao Fangyu.” Mo Fei pulled a chair over and sat down. She placed her chin on the back of the chair and looked at Qian Yikun.
“And then?” Qian Yikun finally loosened his tie and threw it on the bed.
“I don’t know. I feel uncomfortable whenever I see him. When we were eating together that day, the bloodsucking locusts kept making a fuss. He was the only one watching his shows on his own.” Mo Fei cocked her head to one side. “Today, he was the one who took Ding Jiaqi away.”
When Qian Yikun heard this, he nodded in reply and looked at Mo Fei who was frowning so deeply her eyebrows were tightly knitted together.
Letting her handle these things was indeed too difficult for her.
“Ding Jiaqi is truly not smart enough. I think Ding Haobei’s real intention is to ask Ding Jiaqi to find out Gu Juexi’s attitude towards Ding Enterprise. If he treats you well, then he’ll let your grandmother slowly steal the official company stamp. When Ding Enterprise expands, he’ll benefit from it. If Gu Juexi merely invited you just to give you face, then Ding Haobei might make his move now,” Qian Yikun explained.
